The main thread has the ability to create additional threads as Runnable or Callable objects. The Callable interface is similar to Runnable in that both are designed for classes whose instances are potentially executed by another thread. [3] A Runnable, however, does not return a result and cannot throw a checked exception. [4]
The submitted code must be wrapped with a Runnable object. Two methods of these classes allow: synchronous code execution (SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(Runnable) or EventQueue.invokeAndWait(Runnable)) and asynchronous code execution (SwingUtilities.invokeLater(Runnable) or EventQueue.invokeLater(Runnable)) from the event dispatching thread.
An example of active object pattern in Java. [4] Firstly we can see a standard class that provides two methods that set a double to be a certain value. This class does NOT conform to the active object pattern.

A sample UML class and sequence diagram for the observer design pattern. [6] In this UML class diagram, the Subject class does not update the state of dependent objects directly. Instead, Subject refers to the Observer interface (update()) for updating state, which makes the Subject independent of how the state of dependent objects is updated.
The code uses the invokeLater(Runnable) method to invoke the constructor from the AWT event dispatching thread in order to ensure the code is executed in a thread-safe manner. Once the frame is displayed, exiting the main method does not cause the program to terminate because the event dispatching thread remains active until all of the Swing ...
Reentrancy is neither necessary nor sufficient for thread-safety in multi-threaded environments. In other words, a reentrant subroutine can be thread-safe, [1] but is not guaranteed to be [citation needed]. Conversely, thread-safe code need not be reentrant (see below for examples). Other terms used for reentrant programs include "sharable code ...
Concurrent components communicate by altering the contents of shared memory locations (exemplified by Java and C#). This style of concurrent programming usually needs the use of some form of locking (e.g., mutexes, semaphores, or monitors) to coordinate between threads. A program that properly implements any of these is said to be thread-safe.
